* I have estimated the birth dates for Thomas, his predecessors and his son based on their being at least 20 years old before they had children. Even with such a short generation time, it is difficult to fit them all in. It is therefore highly questionable how accurate the information I have is about the early Newmans.


Note 1:  Di Clements quotes from Somerset Wills Fifth Series: "1574 Will of Thomas als Evered of Fivehead Dorset. Relict Dorothy, brother Robert.
Lands at Stony stoke. Daughters Agnes, Helen, Susan. Dorothy the eldest. Son Thomas, brother Henry."

Note 2: Di also quotes another reference to Thomas which I have included on his brother Richard's page (see note 2 on Richard Newman of Charlton Musgrove's page.)
